Off to the periodontist

[jwg]

I've been again having some bite and gum problems in at the upper right rear of my mouth. My regular dentist suggested extraction of the rear-most and/or a consult with a periodontist so I'm off to that this afternoon. If it is an extraction that will be my first other than Wisdom teeth. Since it is the rear-most it doesn't need to be replaced. I got to take the Xray with me so I of course scanned it.

I will still claim I'm not even middle-aged yet!

Of course you're not!

My theory is that what makes people middle-aged is raising children. (Not that everyone who raises kids is middle-aged; but those of us who have not done so will never be middle-aged.)

Perhaps...but I'm inclined to believe a lot of it is confomity to picket-fence, and the burdens that brings!
